Introducing the Carmex Threading Tap — Forming Tap (Roll) for UNF threads, No. 5 x 44. This high-precision tool is built for machinists and production shops that demand consistent, waste-reducing thread formation in tough materials.

• Tap Type: Forming Tap (Roll)
• Thread Standard: UNF (Unified National Fine)
• Material: Powder Metal construction for durability and wear resistance
• Size & Length: No. 5 x 44
• Cutting Geometry: Forming (roll) design for consistent threads and reduced scrap
• Performance: Suitable for high-speed threading and challenging materials
• Longevity: Rugged powder metal withstands repeated use
• Usage Tip: Use proper lubrication to maximize tool life and thread quality

Forming taps create threads by plastic deformation, yielding strong, load-bearing threads with less material waste compared to traditional cutting taps. The UNF Supercut geometry enhances thread quality at higher speeds, while the powder metal construction delivers durable performance in demanding applications. This tap is ideal for production runs and repair work where consistent thread integrity matters, and it pairs well with proper lubrication to extend tool life.
